Make Hell Gay Again: Michigan "Mayor" Bans Straight People

By Brandon Hall(Email Him At WestMIPolitics@Gmail.com)For just $100, you can be the Mayor of Hell, Michigan for a day, and earlier this week, the "Mayor" decided to ban straight people from the small town of less than 100 people.Elijah Daniel, a YouTube comedian, used the opportunity to make a statement against President Trump. He took the President's statement on temporary immigration restrictions, and re-worded it to make his point. What his point is isn't exactly clear, but the whole situation is so absurd, it's pretty funny when you think about it.According to reports:"Once he was in office, Daniel followed President Trump’s lead...

“My ban is a copy-and-paste of Trump’s Muslim ban, but with heterosexuals instead,” Daniel said, taking some rhetorical license.

His mayoral proclamation explains that when he was growing up, he was often told that homosexuals would go to hell. But “now the heterosexuals are trying to take that from us too,” Daniel wrote.

So, as mayor of Hell, he would establish “new vetting measures to keep radical heterosexuals out of our town.”

To make sure his words reached as many people as possible, he posted the ban on Twitter."

Wow...

You can't make this stuff up, folks, welcome to "Pure Michigan."
